Yeah the first level was definitely too hard. It should be pretty easy to help you feel like you're able to progress enough to keep playing!
I love me some rats <3
I adore how you were able to make such a nice puzzle game for such a short time, My team tried to do that and it wasnt particularly easy, so we made something different. Much respect to you!
Nice job! Cute idea, nice execution. Dont really have any critiques, if you expanded on this post jam I could see other blocks to place and environmental obstacles for you and the scientist to change up the puzzle dynamics.
The game is very fun! I had fun solving the puzzles :D, a lot of variety in every level, the difficulty is perfect I think, and not too repetitive! Nice submission!
I loved the concept and the execution. It's really fun to play and watch the little guy go. I hope the rat gets all the cheese!
Yeah! That was my thought about how you have to direct the scientist towards the cheese. He doesn't care that much about it! He's just bringing it back for the rat lol
Interesting game. I'm not sure how much of this was a "it's just not my thing" and how much of it was a "there's something missing", but I definitely felt like something held it back from being really engaging for me.
I do kind of wish that when the first block was placed, that a ~3 second timer would start for the person to start moving, instead of it being instant, just because a lot of times the very beginning was a rush to place a lot of blocks down.
That all aside, it's a nice entry, with a fun premise and take on the theme!
That's a great idea! It would certainly slow down gameplay and allow you to plan a little better. It would also help set the player's gameplay expectations better (building the maze and planning ahead). A lot of people seemed to default to building around the guy as he's running, which is pretty difficult since he's so fast and it blocks you if you are trying to build in the space he's about to move into.
Thanks for the feedback!
